Many consider this roughing it, but I’d beg to disagree. This is lavish decadence. I’m free from the demands of city life. I have endless opportunity to wander at will, or simply sit and watch the magnificence of creation unfold. It’s all right here, happening before my very eyes. Like the endless summers of childhood, my days are long, enchanting, and full of possibility. This is not roughing it. This is smoothing it.
